But he said he has yet to see any compromise he finds acceptable.

Senate Democratic Leader Johnson (T made it clear he hopes the house accepts the senate version without a conference and lays the bill on Mr. Eisenhower's desk. That would put upon the president the responsibility to sign or veto it. Mr. Eisenhower was repre sented as likely to urge house Republicans to stand fast against acceptance of the sen ate version.

He was said to feel that If this results in tying the bill up in a senate-house conference committee for the rest of this session, proponents of a strong measure will be a good position to resume the fight next January when con gress reconvenes.

RUSSIA Mi- Many of the American col lege students in this Soviet capital for the Moscow Youth Festival apparently just came along for the bargain joyrlde At least a third of the 160. member U.

S. group took advantage of Soviet cut-rate travel and lodcintr fees to come here to see the sights and for little else. And a few came for purposes hardly anticipated by their Soviet hosts for the 15-day festival that began last Sunday. One Chicagoan admits he used the festival as an ex cuse to get into the Soviet Union to make a movie illus trating a lecture series he has booked for next winter in the United States. Letters to Khrushchev One girl came with a pack et of letters introducing her to Nikita Khrushchev, Soviet Communist Party head.

"All I wanted was to see him." she said. Eleven other Americans said they had not attended, and don't intend to attend, a singleseminar set up by the Communists. "I'm too busy sightseeing," said Anne Hobson of Richmond, who studies at the University of London. George Abrams of New ton, and Rick Me-dalie of Minneapolis said they have been spending most of their time talking to as many as 200 Muscovites at a time and telling them about the United Na-tions report condemning Soviet intervention in last fall's Hungarian uprising. Abrams said he collected a crowd right in front of the Lenin-Stalin tomb in Red Square and talked there for nearly half an hour.

About 30,000 students from 90 nations are estimated to be here. $140 Tour Many of the Americans said they found the deal offered by the Communists too -good to turn down. For $140 "the youths joined groups vin London and got round-trip transportation between Lon don and Moscow, more than fwo weeks of food, lodging and entertainment, and even free rides on the Moscow subway. The students take their meals in an open-air pavilion at the agriculture ex- position in Moscow's suburbs. The food is good.

They stay in a hotel on fairgrounds. Tickets to such things as performances by Galina Ula- nova, the queen of the Bol-shoi Theater's ballerinas, are around for the taking. Every visitor has been showered with gifts ranging from small pins to boxes of highly polished wood intricately painted with Russian folk lore designs. Pandora's Box The Soviet government financed the festival in the hope of making new friends en a big scale. But the festival has been a Pandora's box for Muscovites.

They see thousands of foreigners walking around talking freely. A lot of people are waiting to see what effects the visit will have. HONORED Bronx Youth Knifed; Seize 3 Teen-agers NEW YORK, N. Y. CP) A Bronx youth was stabbed to death Friday night the third boy in a week to be killed in New York at the hands of fellow teen-agers.

The killing of George Marshall, 18, came only hours after extra detectives had begun patrolling the streets in a special drive against juvenile terrorism.

The minister, the Rev. C. A. Ivory, said the caller did not specifically mention a bomb or otherwise explain the remark. Ivory said he had notified police, who still were in the area of the minister's home Saturday.

The -minister said the last caller warned him to call off the boycott. The boycott, two weeks old, started after a young Negro woman allegedly was ordered by a bus driver to leave a seat she had taken beside a white woman. Gen. Thomas D. White, the new chief, asserted that "the other services" have not made "an over-all adjustment to the present era of nuclear war fare, equivalent to the air force adjustment." Problems White said unresolved problems include: "Ballistic mi ssile vs.

manned' bombers, point defense vs. erect defense, carrier aviation vs. land-based aviation, ready-reserve forces vs. mobilization reserve forces, adequate compensation for competent personnel and realistic military assistance programs." Calling the major air-power deterrent forces as the "survival forces," White said, "Other forces must continue to exist, but on an austere basis, tailored to their contribution to the survival force." seas on Allied air forces for senate's version of the civil The officials, who declined to be quoted by name, said in separate interviews the president regards the bill in its present form as completely unworkable. They agreed that, as the matter stands, Mr.

Eisenhower would rather have no bill at all than to accept the senate's insertion of the jury trial amendment in a measure that it already had stripped of authority to enforce civil rights in funeral. The chief executive's legal advisers are said to have told Mr. Eisenhower, the measure the senate may pass by mid week represents not only an empty shell for protection of voting rights but will ham string government enforce ment in other fields. Southern senators held a strategy session in the bill Saturday. Senator' Russell Ga.) said afterward that he expects a senate vote "within a reasonable time," perhaps Wednesday or even sooner.

Senate Republican Leader Knowland who breakfasted with Mr. Eisenhower, told reporters he hopes the i Plans Fraud Guilty Plea MARSHALLTOWN, IA.
